The winners of the Travel Photographer of the Year contest, which happens every year, have been announced. Out of the 20,000 entries, the top prize went to a picture of one of the last two Northern White Rhinos left in the world.
The judges were amazed by how well Matjaz Krivic was able to show how sad it is for the animals to try to stay alive and bring their species back from the brink of extinction. “This sad story is told beautifully and with sensitivity by Kenya. “The pictures are sweet and personal,” the competition’s judges said.
Krivic is a documentary photographer with more than 25 years of experience traveling the world and taking pictures of people and places with different stories to tell. He is busy right now demonstrating environmental problems and speaking out for a better future.
The set of photos that won the contest was not his first entry. Travel Photographer of the Year says that the artist has entered every year since the competition began in 2003.
